International conferences for spice industry
Founded in 1987, the All India Spices Exporters Forum (AISEF) is the recognised voice of India's spice export industry — working to build a sustainable, pro-development business environment for exporters and stakeholders across the global spice trade. Comprising a majority of India's leading spice exporters, AISEF actively collaborates with the Spices Board of India, Ministry of Commerce, FSSAI, IISR and international bodies including ASTA and ESA, and plays a direct role in setting global spice standards through the Codex Committee.
Beyond trade, AISEF drives change at the grassroots, partnering with the World Spice Organisation (WSO) and IDH to promote sustainable cultivation, food safety and farmer welfare. Programs like the Kisan Pragati Yojana extend this commitment to the farm level, ensuring that India's spice industry grows with economic viability, social responsibility and environmental accountability at its core.
